Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to an engine/transmission system and more specifically to such a system wherein the engine is supercharged using either one, or both of a supercharger and a turbocharger.
  • JP-A-63-17131 and JP-A-61-113526 disclose examples of arrangements wherein engines are combined with automatic transmissions.
  • the engine torque and the transmission shifting are controlled independently of one another.
  • a relatively large shift shock tends to be produced and leads to the situation wherein erratic shift shocks tend to occur.
  • this arrangement suffers from the drawback that this arrangement controls only the ignition timing or air-fuel ratio and ignores the effect of a supercharging device such as an exhaust gas driven turbocharger or mechanically driven supercharger.
  • a supercharging device such as an exhaust gas driven turbocharger or mechanically driven supercharger.
  • the amount of shift shock will vary depending on the presence or absence of supercharge pressure at the time an upshift is produced under minimal engine load.
  • the actual amount of air which is supplied to the engine varies. That is to say, the rate at which the engine speed drops (dashpot rate) is effected by the supercharge pressure in a manner wherein under some conditions it is rapid and slow under others. This variation in engine speed is basic cause of the shift shock generation.
  • the above object is achieved by an arrangement wherein the supercharge pressure is monitored and if the pressure is above a predetermined limit during a minimal load upshift, the pressure generated by the supercharging device is reduced and at the same time an idle control system feed-back meters the amount of air supplied to the engine so that the rate at which the engine speed reduces is maintained essentially constant irrespective of the initial supercharge pressure.
  • a first aspect of the present invention comes in a system which includes a internal combustion engine and an automatic transmission and which features: means responsive to a supercharge pressure control signal for supplying a super charge pressure to the internal combustion engine; a supercharge pressure sensor; an accelerator pedal depression sensor; means for producing a transmission shift control signal; and means for producing a supercharge pressure reduction control signal when an upshift is induced under conditions wherein the accelerator pedal is not depressed and the supercharge pressure is above a predetermined level.
  • a second aspect of the present invention comes in a vehicular system which features: a supercharger operatively connected with an internal combustion engine for supplying air under pressure to the engine; a supercharge pressure sensor; an engine load sensor for producing a signal indicative of the engine operating under minimal load; an automatic transmission operatively connected with the engine; means for monitoring the operation of the transmission and for indicating the transmission undergoing a shift; and supercharge pressure control means responsive to the supercharge pressure sensor, the engine load sensor and the indication from the transmission monitoring means that the transmission is operating under minimum engine load and undergoing an upshift, for reducing the supercharge pressure in the event that the supercharge pressure is above a predetermined level while the transmission is shifting.
  • a third aspect of the present invention comes in a vehicular system which features: supercharger means operatively connected with an internal combustion engine for supplying air under pressure to and induction system of the engine; supercharger control means for varying the amount of supercharge pressure produced by the supercharger; a supercharge pressure sensor, for sensing the level of supercharge pressure in the engine induction system; an engine load sensor for producing a signal indicative of the engine operating under minimal load; an automatic transmission operatively connected with the engine; means for monitoring the operation of the transmission and for indicating the transmission undergoing an upshift; idle control means for controlling the amount of air which is supplied to the engine while the engine is operating under minimal load conditions; and supercharge pressure control means responsive to the supercharge pressure sensor, the engine load sensor and the indication from the transmission monitoring means that the transmission is operating under minimum engine load and undergoing an upshift, for reducing the amount of supercharge pressure produced by the supercharger and for controlling the amount of air which is supplied to the engine so that the rate at which the engine speed reduces is maintained at essentially the same value irrespective
  • FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the conceptual arrangement of the present invention
  • FIG. 2 is a schematic view showing an engine system to which the present invention is applied;
  • FIG. 3 is a shift schedule according to which the transmission shown in FIG. 1 is controlled
  • FIG. 4 is a flow chart depicting the operations which characterize a control routine according to the present invention.
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 are timing charts depicting the supercharge pressure control which is achieved with the present invention and that provided by the prior art, respectively.
  • FIG. 1 shows a system which basically comprises a turbocharged engine 1 operatively connected with an automatic transmission 10.
  • the system includes an idle detection switch 2, a vehicle speed sensor 3, an engine speed sensor 4, a supercharge pressure sensor 5 and miscellaneous other switches and sensors generally denoted by black box 6.
  • These sensors are operatively connected with an ECCS type engine control unit 7 in a manner wherein suitable data required to determine the nature of a supercharge pressure control signal which is applied to a supercharge pressure control solenoid 8 and an induction control signal which is applied to an AAC valve 9 which forms part of an idle control system.
  • An accelerator pedal depression sensor 11 along with suitable other switches generally denoted by element 12 are operatively connected with an automatic transmission (A/T) control unit 13 and is supplied with data input therefrom.
  • A/T automatic transmission
  • the output of the vehicle speed sensor 3 is also supplied to the A/T control unit 13.
  • the A/T control unit 13 is arranged to output a control signal or signals to one or more transmission control solenoids generally denoted by numeral 14.
  • the A/T control unit includes a microprocessor or the like type of circuit arrangement which controls the shifting of the transmission in accordance with a shift schedule of the nature shown in FIG. 3. As will be appreciated, this schedule is recorded in terms of vehicle speed and engine load as indicated by the amount of accelerator pedal depression.
  • the ECCS control unit 7 and the A/T control unit 13 include IC data transfer circuits 7a and 13a which are placed in communication with one another by transmission lines 20 and 21. This arrangement enables the two circuits to be informed of the given operations (viz., operations which are pertinent to shift shock attenuation) being performed by the other on a real time basis.
  • the signal which is applied to the waste gate control solenoid 8 is modified in a manner which increases the amount of exhaust gases which are permitted to by-pass the turbocharger turbine and thus reduce the amount of energy with which the turbocharger compressor is driven.
  • FIG. 2 shows an example of a turbocharged engine and the manner in which the ECCS control unit is operatively connected therewith.
  • a turbocharger 32 is operatively arranged with induction and exhaust conduits 30 and 31, in a conventional manner.
  • An intercooler 33 is disposed in the induction conduit at a location downstream of the turbocharger compressor.
  • a control pressure conduit 34 leads from the induction conduit at a location downstream of the intercooler, to a pneumatically operated waste gate servo motor or so called swing valve 35.
  • the waste gate control solenoid 8 is arranged to control the amount of pressure which is permitted to vent from the control pressure conduit 34 into a by-pass conduit 37 which leads back to the induction conduit and communicates therewith at a location upstream of the turbocharger compressor.
  • the AAC valve 9 is arranged in the induction system in a manner to control the amount of induction air which is permitted to pass through a by-pass conduit 38 and by-pass a throttle valve 37.
  • the signal which is applied to the AAC valve 9 switches between high and low levels (ON/OFF) at a predetermined frequency. By increasing the period for which the signal assumes the high (ON) level, the amount of air which is permitted to by-pass the throttle valve is increased.
  • This flow chart depicts a control routine which is run in the ECCS control unit 7 and which is used to control the supercharge pressure and idling speed.
  • step 1001 signals which are indicative of the transmission undergoing a shift, the status of the idle switch, the level of the supercharge pressure and the engine speed are read in.
  • step 1002 it is determined if the "shift signal" as will be referred to, exhibits a high level (transmission is undergoing a shift) or not. In the event of an affirmative outcome the routine goes to step 1003 wherein it is determined if the idle switch signal is indicative of the throttle valve being fully closed or not.
  • step 1004 it is determined if the instant supercharge pressure (Pc) is indicated as being above a predetermined level (Po) or not.
  • step 1005 a command to close the waste gate is issued.
  • This command is such as to induce the supercharge pressure control solenoid 8 to assume an ON (energized) condition, and to result in the swing valve 35 closing the waste gate 36.
  • step 1006 a command to set the supercharge pressure control solenoid 8 to OFF is issued. This of course induces the swing valve 35 to open the waste gate 36.
  • Step 1007 follows either of steps 1005 and 1006.
  • feedback control of the engine idling speed is executed in a manner which limits the degree to which the engine speed is permitted to reduce. This control is accomplished by controlling the ACC valve 9 and the amount of air which is permitted to by-pass the closed throttle valve 37.
  • feedback control of the engine speed and how it is accomplished will be self-evident to those skilled in automotive engineering, detailed disclosure of the same will be omitted for the sake of brevity.
  • the rate at which the engine speed is permitted to decrease is limited to almost exactly the same value as in the case wherein the supercharge pressure was absent, and the upshift (e.g. the 1-2 upshift) occurs just as the engine speed has reduced to the above mentioned given low level.
  • turbocharger is disclosed as having a waste gate for by-passing exhaust gases about the turbine thereof, the use of variable capacity devices which enable the amount of supercharge pressure to be controlled without the need of waste gating and the like can be envisaged.
  • the supercharge pressure control is disclosed as being basically of the ON/OFF type, it is possible determined the amount of movement which lead to the accelerator pedal assume the non-depressed state and vary the degree to which the supercharge pressure is reduced, based on the same.
